Charlie Bell jailed after showing up drunk for DWI hearing

Veteran Golden State guard Charlie Bell was jailed for several hours Thursday after he showed up legally drunk for a hearing on his drunken driving case.

WJRT television in Flint, Mich., reported that Bell spent a few hours in custody when a pre-scheduled alcohol assessment test before his case Thursday showed his blood-alcohol level was .09. The legal limit in Michigan is .08.

Bell, 32, a former Michigan State star, was arrested in Flint on Oct. 21. He was charged with drunken driving, driving with a suspended license and failing to stop at a stop sign.
